Your solution was actually very good and convincing.
But i was trying the same without using switch/if-else or any user defined function.
I feel that there may be any other means to achieve the problem.
If it is not feasible then i am really sorry for the question i posted.
Thanks.

Yes, there are other ways to accomplish the same thing. You could probably also use a complicated template scheme to accomplish the same thing but why go through all that trouble? Are you attempting this for educational purpose?
Templated code easily produces code bloat if used incorrectly. If you add a template function in the middle of that for-loop it will likely generate much larger code than directly accessing the struct member and generating conditional jump instructions which jmp directly into the class constructor.
There is nothing to gain here by using templated code to create dialogs.

Yes you are right.
To do that task now i am sequentially writing those many statements for each dialogs.
I thought this task as challenging.
I continued with some research and tryouts.
You have suggested about templates, can you please help me out with a piece of code.
This is just educational.
I haven't stuck for this but I am trying to complete the task in any ways.
Though it is silly problem I have spend enough time for it.
I hope you understood the problem.
Thanks & Regards,
K. Sushilkumar.

I've had a similar problem in the past.
I used the following article to solve it:
http://secure.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/enumleafclasses.aspx[^]
I created a common ancester for the dialogs
class CMyDialog : public CDialog
{
...
DECLARE_ROOT_CLASS (CMyDialog);
...
};
and then a bunch of inheriting dialogs:
class CMyDialog1 : public CMyDialog
{
...
DECLARE_LEAF_CLASS (CMyDialog);
...
}
Then I could add new child classes to my hearts content - and loop through and create them.
int n, nCount = CMyDialog::GetRegisteredManufacturingPlantCount ();
CBootStrapper<cmydialog> *pBS;
CMyDialog *pSub;
for (n = 0; n < nCount; n++)
{
pBS = CMyDialog::GetRegisteredManufacturingPlant (n);
pSub = pBS->CreateObject ();
....
}
</cmydialog>
You'll need to read the article for fine detail, but I've used the concept a few times, and it worked nicely for me.
I hope that helps,
Iain.

Thank you.
It is a good solution.
Yes it could help me to some extent in my code.
Because the dialogs are already being implemented.
And i cannot change them from my side.
I can only create the dialogs.
As i discussed in earlier post that i was searching for some different technique instead of using if-else/switch for new operator.
But as part of education/knowledge the technique used is mind blowing.
Thanks & Regards,
K. Sushilkumar.

If the dialogs are already implemented somewhere else, and out of your control, then the article I pointed you at is of little use.
I don;t think you have any alternative to brute force sadly. You can make it more or less elegant, but at some point you are going to have to match option with dialog...
Maybe populate a map between option DWORD, and CDialog *? then you can iterate a biiiiit.
Iain.

Hello,
I'm writting a C++ DLL Hook to read any message to any program, so I'm using
SetWindowsHookEx(WH_CALLWNDPROC, CallWndProc, handleInstance, 0);
Then, in my CallWndProc, I need to filter the data coming so I can read the messages from the window I want, but it's not working as expected. During my tests, I wanted to read the messages from the HWND 0x00020afa, so if I put in the CallWndProc:
LRESULT CALLBACK CallWndProc(int nCode, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if(nCode < 0)
return CallNextHookEx(handleHook, nCode, wParam, lParam);
CWPSTRUCT* cwpstruct = (CWPSTRUCT*)lParam;
if((HWND)0x00020afa == cwpstruct->hwnd)
{
MessageBox(NULL, "TEST","LOL",MB_OK);
}
return CallNextHookEx(handleHook, nCode, wParam, lParam);
}
I would get the message boxes popping like crazy, but then I decided to add a global HWND to my dll:
HWND hWindow;
And then a stupid function to set it:
VOID __stdcall HookHwnd(HWND hWnd)
{
hWindow = hWnd;
}
So I can choose which HWND i want to track with
if(hWindow == cwpstruct->hwnd) instead of if((HWND)0x00020afa == cwpstruct->hwnd)
... But it doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong here? I'm new to the dll world. Also, is this the correct way to read the messages from a window?
Thanks!

Hi Tony_P
Whenever you install a hook, the DLL gets injected into the process' memory. So, each process will have all together different global variable 'hWindow'. To avoid this you'll have to use the concept of data sharing among the DLLs/Process. Following links may help you.
Data Sharing Among DLL/Process[^]
Hooking Sample[^]

Even if each process has a different hWindow, wouldn't the function "HookHwnd" I created set every hWindow to the same value?
Anyway, thank you for the links, I'm going to try this

You could actually make it work this way. You use the RegisterWindowMessage Function[^] to create a unique window message and broadcast it using HWND_BROADCAST[^]. Just make sure that your window message is unique and its not in the WM_USER range so it will not conflict with custom window messages used internally in other applications. RegisterWindowMessage will return something in the range of MAXINTATOM-MAXWORD so you should be safe.
In your DLL you could handle this custom message and set the local variable to a target window handle. And since you have both WPARAM and LPARAM this means you could target both PID and window handle. Essentially instructing the DLL "Process with PID x please monitor window n".
This is a sort of hackish way of doing it in my opinion, the shared-data segment in my earlier post would probably be a better choice. You could instruct each DLL there also using a similar technique. The great thing about engineering software is there is always many paths to reach the goal.

Wow! Thank you for sharing all this valuable information to me. Now back on Visual C++ :p

Yes. Think of it this way... your DLL is being mapped into multiple applications each of which is executing inside its own Virtual Address Space[^]. This essentially means that each copy of the DLL has a different value for your global variable named hWindow.
You need to implement a shared data section:
How To Share Data Between Different Mappings of a DLL[^]
This will allow all applications to read from the shared data section.

Well it seems like this shared memory is the solution. I'm going to try it. Thank you!

Hi,
In FAT file system I can access "System Volume Information" folder but in NTFS I can't.
How can I access it?
|
|
|
|
|
By ensuring that the user trying to access the folder has appropriate permissions.
Right-click the folder then sort out the user access permissions from the Sharing/Security context menu item. Pick the Security tab, then ensure the user belongs to one of the groups that has access, or create a new group that has access and add the user to it.

Hello,
I am having the following routine which handles my menu options and directs them to the appropriate functions.Now if I want to divert these functions through keyboard handlers that ALT F,ALT D etc.
How should I go about?
BOOL CMainFrame::OnCommand(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if(HIWORD(wParam) == 0)
{
switch(LOWORD(wParam)) //LOWORD of wParam identifies the control
{
//ids from menu options
case MENUINVENTORY :
{OnInventory();break;}
case MENUJOB :
{OnJob();break;}
case MENUCAPCONTRACT :
{OnCapContract();break;}
}
}
Thanks,
Prithaa

I hope, the only thing you've to do is provide keyboard accelerator to your menu option. To provide keyboard accelerator use '&' character before the alphabet you like to use in combination with 'Alt' key. E.g if you've the menu with caption "Help", to provide 'Alt H' combination, set the caption as "&Help". The 'Alt H' combination will accelerate the menu select option, and you need not to worry about the routine handlers.

Hi All
How can set the satic text size?I want to set the static text which is written by ne.Plz help me
|
|
|
|
|
You can use of CreateFont and after make your font you can use of SetFont.(you need change id of staticfont).
|
|
|
|
|
can you give me some line of example.
|
|
|
|
|
CFont m2;
m2.CreateFontA(20,0,0,0,FW_NORMAL,FALSE,FALSE,0,ANSI_CHARSET,OUT_DEFAULT_PRECIS,
CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS,DEFAULT_QUALITY,DEFAULT_PITCH | FF_SWISS,_T("System"));
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC2)->SetFont(&m2);
